Hello, joystick stopped working so I thought I'd try to update the firmware, unsuccessfull after many,many many tries.  Loads to 87% and message is about the gimbal . Also the app reads 0% battery and it's fully charged

Thanks for the pictures. In this case, please change to another cable and try to upgrade again to see if it works. In addition, please clean the contacts between the gimbal and the battery.

No, I got busy with other projects and I still have a broken gimbal.  I would like to just ship it back and not go through these hoops of screenshots and video of the issue.  Poor customer service for sure!!!

Hi krissnoova, may I confirm that whether you mean the gimbal has no response to the joystick? Can you update/refresh the firmware successfully? And please also check if you can control the gimbal through the app?

Exact same issue as well. I've only used the device a couple of times and it decided not to work during a paid gig.

Hi to all, just solved the issue but i dont know exactly how…i think part of the problem is the battery, specially if you didn’used for a while. I tried to update firmware a lot of times, failing on all, and i unplugged the usb cable in the middle of one. The battery stayed unresponsive but with 2 central leds illuminated. I tried to change the battery, same problem. Returned to the battery with the led problem, tried to update and: first fail, second success. After the update, normal response to joystick and all features operative. So…i dont know exactly what happened and what solved the problem. Hope to help someone….

Did DJI end up working this out? My Ronin-S joystick is unresponsive and the balance test connects but doesn’t end - the cog wheel just keeps spinning
